What are the periods of feminist society in ancient China?
Don't! Even if Wu Zetian became the queen of the Tang Dynasty, she was not a feminist in essence! But since ancient times, no matter the powerful, rich children or ordinary people, some people are afraid of their wives. In addition, the pursuit of women's rights is extreme, that is, disguised male power, and the pursuit of equal rights between men and women is impossible. The connotation of feminist society is the degree of tolerance and self-opening to women. During Wu Zetian's 44 years in power, the feminist society reached the peak of China's ancient history! Even, it is no exaggeration to say that women in the Tang Dynasty were as open as any other society in history.

The opening of the feminist society in the Tang Dynasty also showed an elegant atmosphere in the costumes of the Tang Dynasty. Especially in the Kaiyuan period, after the rule of Wu Zetian and the cultural impact of Central Asia, India, Persia and other regions, the status of women has been improved unprecedentedly. At that time, women were all dressed up, and there was no longer the custom of "no women in public" in the previous dynasty.

In addition, there was a time when topless clothes without underwear became popular. Women in the Tang Dynasty, from full-body covering to revealing, and then to nudity, reflected the liberation of women's spirit in the Tang Dynasty. It is precisely because of this female liberalism that women in the prosperous Tang Dynasty were able to express their self-confidence as women at will through clothing.

In ancient times, it can be said that except the Tang Dynasty and the Republic of China, women had to abide by women's morality. Therefore, in the history of women's clothing in China, it is extremely rare for women to dress as men. However, in the Tang Dynasty, especially in the Wu Zetian period, the phenomenon of women wearing men's clothing was not only prevalent; And it is also very common, just like the pants worn by women are no different from those worn by men now. In the Tang Dynasty, women and men generally wore narrow-sleeved round-neck robes, belts and trousers. This phenomenon is everywhere, very casual!

Looking at the above, the change and openness of this kind of clothing all show from one side that feminism in the Tang Dynasty is obviously less bound than at any time in history.
